I think this is sooo true.   People for some reason separateate something they dislike from the political party they support.

As a member of GenerationX I am also slowly accepting that the larger generations that follow me have a different view on life and part of that difference is what they expect/want from their government.

Yeah, it is amazing that their devotion to the Borg is so strong that they remain assimilated to it even after being driven out of their own state. 

Mindless conformists.

They sure do. Much of that started in schools. I've witnessed it happen to some of my family members.

We just got our renewal papers for our corporate insurance. Our rate has now quadrupled since 2010.

We are going to pass more onto the employees again. We used to provide it free of charge. That is obviously impossible now.
yup, health ins has been going up at alarming rates for at least a decade
not sure how much Obamacare affected it
probably made it worse

having the government running anything isn't good
cincy once pointed out something the government was doing a good job with, I can't remember what is was.

I have personally spoken to dozens of North East Usa transplants here in Florida. They openly admit their departure was to flee higher taxes and then in the next breath profess their love for candidates who are immediately going to raise their taxes here in Florida. It is mind boggling
old folks from the NE have been flocking to Florida for decades

thankfully, the high tax rates haven't happened yet

If they had nice Winters then more people would move there, and they would no longer be great places to live and raise a family.

Me people? Ahh, silly Buckeye. I moved to the south for work reasons, not to avoid taxes. And I moved to a state where I was in the highest state tax bracket despite making shockingly little money. 

Anywho, the answer remains the same. If you don't like your neighbors, you have two choices: move or complain. We're all just talking about being different sorts of transplants anyway.
